'''1.What are Bluebooks.'''

Bluebooks are a system for determining what a character does between games. They can be used to grow backgrounds, change the nature of scenes, or affect the city as a whole. Discord message your bluebooks to the Neon Nights Blue books account for the staff to see them.

'''2. Actions'''.

Just like in the real world, people are limited in the number of things they can do in a day, a week, or a month. To represent this we use a resource referred to as “Time” in this game. Time is broken up into units referred to as actions. Players spend actions to accomplish tasks.

'''3. How many actions do I get?'''

The number of actions a character gets is determined by a few factors.

1: Every character gets one action just for being alive

2: Vampires get an additional action based on their clan. This action must be of the type described in the “Time” section of the wiki.

3: All Members of the Camarilla (or vampires who mainly hang out in camarilla cities/ act like members of the Camarilla) get an additional action for that. Members of the Sabbat get something else (if you think your character qualifies then talk to me privately.) Anarchs and independents get the benefit of whoever is in charge of the city at the time.

4: Characters get one action for having a humanity rated at 4 or above.

5: Characters get one additional action for having a humanity rated at 7 or above.

'''4: What can I do with my actions?'''

Great question. You can do many different things based on the type of action you are taking. There are 15 types of actions detailed in the Time section of the wiki. If you don't feel like the action you want to take fits any of them just mark it as (Other) and we will talk it out.

'''Sample Bluebook'''

'''“Benny The Brujah”''' January 1998

Benny is a Brujah Scholar and has a lot of things to do with his month. He has a humanity of 7 so he gets 5 actions, one of which must be a live-fire training action since he is a Brujah.
Benny’s Email to staff looks like this.

“1) Grow Media Influence to 2” - I use my Media1 and my Finance 3 to grow Media 2.

“2) Scourge” - I patrol Eastern Vegas looking for Changelings because I need to ask one some questions.

“3) Research” - I continue work on my Mytheceria / Thanatosis combo discipline plan. I’m at 4 research points.

4) Grow Backgrounds - I want to grow my resources from 4 to 5. This is my second month doing it. You stated at game that it started as difficulty 5 so it should be down to a three now. Id like to make the finance check at game or through the discord.

“Clan) Live Fire - Fortitude 4”- Im learning Fortitude Four from Sam the Setite. I sent this expenditure to the NeonNightsXp discord server as well.

__________

'''Rhonda the Ravnos''' January 1998

Rhonda is busy playing the influence game. She has a Humanity of 4 though so she has fewer actions than Benny.

“1) Grow High society Influence to 4” - I use my Media 5 and my Industry 5 to grow High society to 4.

“2) Hide Underworld influence” - With the DEA in town I decide to hide my police influence in case they try and root out corruption

“3) Attack Bennys Underworld with my police 4” -I use my Police 4 to attack Benny’s Underworld 4. I try and make the attack look like a DEA raid.

“Clan) Live Fire" - I live fire for Nate the Nosferatu, teaching him Animalism 3. He paid me a trivial.

________

'''Trevor the Tremere'''

Trevor cares very little about influences and instead spends his time Researching a new ritual
Trevor has a Humanity of 5.

“1) Research” - I continue researching the level 5 ritual I have been working on. We talked about it at game and I sent you my rough draft, After this month I should have accrued 8 research points.

“2) Research” See Action 1

“3) Grow backgrounds” I want to grow my occult library from 4-5. I use my occult influence of 5 and my transportation 5 to do so.

“Clan) Research” See action 1
